Living between approximately 1.8 million and 200,000 years ago across Europe and northern Asia, this enormous herbivore stood up to 4.5 metres (15 feet) tall at the shoulder and could weigh over 10 tonnes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Steppe Mammoth is widely regarded as the direct ancestor of the famous Woolly Mammoth. As Ice Age climates became colder, populations gradually evolved into the shaggy mammoths that would later roam the frozen tundra.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike its wool-covered descendants, the Steppe Mammoth inhabited open grasslands, river valleys, and temperate steppes. It used its massive, spiralling tusks to strip bark, move vegetation, and compete with rivals during the breeding season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts immense size made adult Steppe Mammoths nearly invulnerable to predators, although calves would have faced threats from prehistoric lions, hyenas, and packs of wolves.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Figure\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEofauna has produced one of the most scientifically accurate prehistoric mammal figures available today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe proportions perfectly capture the immense bulk of \u003cem\u003eMammuthus trogontherii\u003c\/em\u003e, with towering shoulders, a muscular trunk, thick column-like legs, and spectacular forward-curving tusks that immediately command attention. Rather than exaggerating its appearance, Eofauna focuses on anatomical accuracy, making this figure feel like a reconstruction from a natural history museum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery wrinkle, muscle, and fold of skin has been carefully sculpted, giving the model remarkable realism from every angle. The dramatic walking pose adds movement while preserving the immense weight and presence expected from one of the largest land mammals in Earth's history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePaint Application\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe paintwork follows Eofauna's signature naturalistic style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRich dark brown tones blend into lighter greys and subtle earth colours across the body, emphasizing the skin's intricate texture without appearing overdone. Gentle shading highlights the muscles beneath the hide, while the enormous ivory tusks feature realistic weathering and colour variation that enhance their scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFine details around the eyes, trunk, and mouth further elevate the realism, making this figure feel equally at home in a museum display or a collector's cabinet.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCollector POV\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Steppe Mammoth is a centrepiece figure. Its incredible size and unmistakable tusks instantly draw attention, while its scientific accuracy makes it one of the finest prehistoric mammal models ever produced. Unlike many dinosaur figures, it represents a fascinating chapter of more recent prehistory that helped shape the Ice Age ecosystems familiar to many people today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether displayed alongside other Eofauna mammals or integrated into a broader prehistoric collection, this figure brings outstanding diversity beyond dinosaurs while maintaining the same museum-quality standards collectors expect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anyone building a scientifically grounded prehistoric collection, the Eofauna Steppe Mammoth is an essential addition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-end=\"2876\" data-start=\"2849\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"2874\" data-start=\"2853\"\u003eModel Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2955\" data-start=\"2877\"\u003e15.5 cm x  19 cm\u003cbr data-end=\"2913\" data-start=\"2910\"\u003eScale : 1:40\u003cbr\u003eThis PVC figure includes a bonus collectible\/playing card.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eofauna","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49275565572355,"sku":"Figure-001","price":52.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0769\/1105\/1011\/files\/EoFauna-Steppe-mammoth-01.jpg?v=1784169854","url":"https:\/\/www.dinosaurcrates.com\/products\/eofauna-steppe-mammoth-figure","provider":"Dinosaur Crates","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
